Open it to continue watching a show- 2 minutes of ads. Find the episode, start it- 2 minutes of ads. Forward to the part I left off at, 2 minutes of ads.

Fucking garbage.

they have absolutely no problem charging you money and forcing you to watch bullshit ads, but you just can't live with yourself if you obtained the show without paying them

lol

sorry for your luck? i can't even remember the last time i even saw an ad, and i feel fucking great about it

    Im the type of person they hate, I got the service along with T-mobile internet. Technically, I’m not paying them a dime- and since they seem to subject people to annoyance after annoyance to entice us into paying to not be annoyed- I never will.

    I just assumed this fit the description of something that belongs here.

    because offering this "extra bonus 'free' package" brings them more money than if they were to charge you, because of the contract you signed, and the data you're giving them. for free. honestly i would pay a dime if it meant skipping 2 minutes of ads followed by 2 minutes of ads

    but no one has to do that. search up mullvad, buy some VPN for $5/month and go from there. i honestly don't get why anyone even creates an account on streaming services anymore, let alone pays them

    Again, not paying. We’re hitching along for the ride as a result of something we’re already getting.

    And No contract. Just using the service as long as we want to have it.
